Hi! Just noticed that you are updating your guide to season 7! So glad to know that my favourite bard guide is back! I simply love Bard as a support and as a champion itself so I'm happy to see a nice guide like this one! Could you please reply me when this guide is fully updated to season 7 ? I'd really like to know when I can read so I can get better with Bard :-). Continue with the good work babe! Wish you good luck :*

Thanks and I can't wait for our Star Guardian collab :) ♥

As a Bard main, I can say that this guide is pretty much spot on! Very well made and really indepth, which i think is very usefull for people new to bard. The only suggestion I have is an alternative set of runes, and i'll explain why. I usually take MR glyphs cause AP supports that poke a lot are very common these days. Since Bard is a ranged support i dont feel he really needs Armor quints since he shouldnt be in ADC range most of the time and I think he bennefits more from AP quints due to increased damage on his Q, meeps autos and Thunderlord. As for marks I personally take armor ones and hp seals. But as as I said, overall this is a very nice guide, one of my personal favorites here on MOBAfire. Congrats

PS: É sempre bom ver portugueses a fazerem bons guides :) Parabéns

Thank you a lot! E obrigado por sugerires outras runas, quando tiver tempo eu adiciono ao guide :)

Hey there! Im a Bard main that actually only plays Bard xD. I have question and that is why is Miss Fortune a bad adc in the combination with bard? My adc loves playing mf but everywhere on the internet i find that it is very bad.. Can you explain me why? I thought it was actually very good! bcs of the Bard ult and then after miss fortune.

Like I said, Bard doesn't have an HORRIBLE synergy with any ADC. However, Fortune is one of the ADCs who I, personally, don't like to support as Bard. Bard and MF can make some good combos, like Bard's stun followed by MF's "Make it Rain" and her ultimate. However, MF requires all-in supports, like Leona! MF's ultimate is one of the reasons she's picked, and so she requires a support who has AoE CC, to keep your enemies inside your ult, like Leona and Braum. Bard's stun is good for MF, however there are supports who can make it better. MF needs protection too and that's something other supports can do better. There's also one small problem, but since you and your friend are premades, and you probably speak via skype during your matchups, it may not exist for you both. Bard ultimate may block MF's ultimate since it makes your enemies untargetable. However if you are well coordinated it may work. I think it's a question of training and coordination: If you usually win when picking those two champions together, go for it. Since you're premades you can plan things better, and so you can make some good combos with Bard and Fortune. But be aware that there are better choices for Fortune.

hi man
question do you think roa abysall scepter and rylai's is a good pick on bard? playing him long time now and im trying new stuff

(21) |

Abysall is not a BAD choice on Bard, but if you want magic resist Banshee's Veil is a better option, the extra AP is good but not a priority on Bard. Rylai's is not the best option for Bard since he already has slows in his auto-attacks and Q (cosmic binding) and for what I know the slow doesn't stack :D

Hey dude! Very usefull guide! Fix this please - Cunning Tree - Tier 1- Wanderer vs Savagery (rengar's ability) ^^'

(21) |

Thank you, I'll fix that when I have some time ^^

Thank you, i'm glad that you enjoyed my guide decorations, I spent a lot of time working on them :)

Ooh, i got to say i like it quite a lot. It's really fancy, i have been seeing every Bard guide and your's is my favorite by far! Thank you for making me a better Bard player

(21) |

Ty for spending a little bit of your time helping me making my guide better!

I would consider maxing E over W second on Bard, the extra Ally move speed and cooldown makes you more mobile and enables you to travel through magical journeys much faster giving the enemy team less time to react. Also It allows you to escape much easier. At max rank it gives you 50% bonus speed, which can make a very big difference.

I liked your guide! Gonna read some more later.

Your guide is very pretty^^

Have you considered start? You can use the time before minions spawn set up a couple heal shrines for your jungler, and a couple heal shrines near your bot tower. That way you won't be waiting on your cooldowns when you hit level 2 because the shrines will already be there from your initial setup.

Also, your english is pretty good for your second language c:

Thank you a lot, you're very nice!!! It's recommendable to evolve W first. I usually evolve q, but it depends on your playstyle ^^
